Send Push

Jamie Foxx will be opening up about his mystery health scare during three one-man shows in October.

The award-winning actor, 56, was hospitalised in April 2023 after experiencing what was referred to by his daughter Corinne Foxx, 29, as a "medical complication". He later spent time in a physical rehab centre and has spoken about his health on a few occasions. He later admitted he "doesn't remember" anything about his health complications as he was "gone" for 20 days after taking a pill to ease the pain of a "bad headache".

After he was first hospitalised, he thanked fans for their support and revealed he "went to hell and back" but was grateful to be here. And now, the They Cloned Tyrone actor will be sharing details of what went down with fans during three one-man shows in Atlanta, titled 'One More Chance: An Evening with Jamie Foxx'.

Sharing the news on Instagram, he said: "Join us for an unforgettable one-man show as Jamie Foxx takes the stage to share his journey through a serious health scare, filled with humor, heart, and inspiration! Experience Jamie Foxx like never before in this intimate and engaging performance, as he opens up about his struggles, triumphs, and everything in between.

In July, Jamie opened up about his illness while speaking to a crowd in downtown Phoenix in the US. Footage was shared by the outlet The Art Of Dialogue on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday. In the video, Jamie opened up about being hospitalised, admitting that he was "gone" for 20 days after taking a pill to ease the pain of a "bad headache".

"I had a bad headache. Asked my boy for an Advil." Jamie then snapped his fingers before telling the crowd: "I was gone for 20 days. I don't remember anything. So they told me... I'm in Atlanta... they told me... my sister and daughter took me to the first doctor. [They] gave me a cortisone shot."

Before pointing at his head, he said: "Next doctor said '[there's] something going on up there'." Jamie added: "I won't say it on camera. Yeah, I don't want to say it on camera."
